Calculate percent using prior group in same column

Trying to duplicate functionality of an excel sheet which calculates percentages within same column using prior group values. Not sure how to construct such a data set.
The column is part of a pivot with an integer value representing a sum.

For example:
GroupVal1
Val1
Val2
Val3
GroupVal2
Val1
Val2
Val3

Need to create a data set to calculate GroupVal2/GroupVal1, (Groupval2) Val1/ GroupVal1 Val1, etc. for all the detail rows.

Any suggestions what SQL to use for this?

Yes, but they are not in the same group, so not in scope.
